[Verse 1]
I'm gonna keep it real
How you make me feel
Boy you give me chills, baby
I'm gonna break it down
You just drive me wild whenever you're around

[Hook]
You know how I do
And you know how I flow
Can I get your name and number
Cause I like your steelo
And I dig the way you move
And the way you do your thing
Baby you can bring it on
You can swing it this way

[Verse 2]
Boy it's something about you
That make me tell my friends
But they don't understand no, no
They don't know your style
With your high profile
The fliest thing in town

[Hook]
You know how I do
And you know how I flow
Can I get your name and number
Cause I like your steelo
And I dig the way you move
And the way you do your thing
Baby you can bring it on
You can swing it this way

[Bridge]
You stay on my mind
Think about you all the time
Got to get to know you well
If you kiss then I won't tell
You stay on my mind
Think about you all the time
Got to get to know you well
If you kiss then I won't tell

Kiss me, oh hold me
I say squeeze me, oh squeeze me whoa
Kiss me, oh hold me
I say squeeze me, whoa, kiss me

[Missy]
One two uh
Check it, check it, check it out
Follow, follow me
Many, many, many miles
One two, check it out
Lemme, lemme, lemme, lemme, lemme break you down
This track is nasty like punani
Word to Mommy I like Joe but he sloppy, dag
Poppy got a brand new bag, for real
I take and 'Quel O'neil like Shaq, Shaq
Ask Michael Jackson who Bad
He says I am but the queen not drag
I'm bad enough to let my pants sag
I be in Vegas where 702 be at
Check it out

[Hook]
You know how I do
And you know how I flow
Can I get your name and number
Cause I like your steelo
And I dig the way you move
And the way you do your thing
Baby you can bring it on
You can swing it this way

702 is an R&B vocal trio comprised of sisters Irish and LeMisha ‘Misha’ Grinstead and Kameelah Williams, the lead singer. “702” refers to the area code of their native Las Vegas, Nevada. They started as a quartet, which included Irish’s twin sister, Orish Grinstead—founding member and later a substitute vocalist.

The Grinstead sisters (along with Williams) attended the Las Vegas Academy of Performing Arts, and sometimes performed in the lobby of Caesars Palace. It was there they were discovered by comedian Sinbad, who convinced their parents to enter them in a music competition under the name “Sweeta Than Suga.” They came in second place, and met Michael Bivins, the founding member of R&B group New Edition. They recorded a few demos, with Orish eventually leaving the group—she was replaced by Kameelah Williams. The new group was dubbed “702.”

702’s debut album, No Doubt, was released on October 8 1996, and was co-produced by Missy Elliott. The album was certified gold. Their second album, the self-titled 702, was released June 15, 1999 and produced their most well-known hit to “Where My Girls At?”, which Missy wrote and produced. The song became the official anthem for the WNBA season opener in 1999.
